At 25°C, the screech of the Sneetches can travel 250 meters across the plains of Sneedville in 0.50 seconds. Determine the velocity of these sound waves as they travel across the plains. show your work

The velocity of the sound waves across the plains of Sneedville is 500 m/s.

Step-by-Step Explanation:

Distance travel by the screech of Sneetches = d = 250 m

Time taken to cove 250 meters = t = 0.50 s

Let the velocity of the sound waves be v, such that:

v = d/t

⇒ v = 250/0.5

⇒ v = 500 m/s
